Abstract

В статье рассматриваются особенности и цели использования фразеологизмов метафорической модели «экономика как живой организм» – «экономическая деятельность как прием пищи» в английском деловом дискурсе, а также возможность использования подобных метафорических моделей на занятиях со студентами экономических специальностей с целью расширения словарного запаса и улучшения социокультурных познаний обучающихся.
